OLED display of the device, the user interface looks seamless. First, the security menu is
very effective which also shows some shortcuts to some application as phone and camera.
This shortcuts also changeable as user can set their desired application shortcuts which will
help to open such application without navigating the menu. A swipe on the lock unlocks the
phone if the security is set to none. The default home screen includes weather, time and date
with voice search one. At the bottom of the screen four most use application shortcuts are
situates as phone, message, play store and camera which are also replicable. Bottom of such

certain application. This approach is very effective as users will not be bothered by the
navigation bars.
